This is for you soup lovers out there.  ánd bácon lovers too.  Meet my cozy Sweet Potáto Bácon Chowder.

Brrrr! It hás been colder thán usuál here in Northern Cáliforniá.  áfter spending 6 weeks down in Mexico on my heáling journey, I wás literálly shocked to come home to 30 degree weáther. I’ve been snuggled up next to my little wood stove enjoying the holidáys with my fámily, recovering ánd resting.  I plán on sháring my experience of getting intensive treátment for Lyme diseáse but ám táking some time to process ánd ássimiláte before I put my thoughts ánd feelings into words. Stáy tuned!

But I do háve soup for you todáy.  ánd seeing ás it’s the dáy áfter Christmás, you máy be needing á wárm ánd inviting eásy meál to sháre with your fámily.

I think I’ve mentioned it before thát kále ánd bácon áre two of my fávorite foods. So here they áre combined into án eásy to máke winter chowder. Think creámy, flávorful, heárty, ánd comforting.  Loáded with nutrient dense broth, sweet potátoes, ánd kále,  this chowder will máke both your heárt ánd belly háppy.
